The man who carried out the explosion at the Kalamassery convention center has turned himself in at the Kodakra Police Station in Thrissur.
Dominic Martin has provided some evidence, which we are currently reviewing. He identifies himself as a Jehovah’s Witness, according to the Kerala Police.
Around 9:30 a.m., an IED explosion shook the Zamra International Convention & Exhibition Centre in Kalamassery, Kerala, disrupting a Jehovah’s Witness prayer meeting, leaving one woman dead and over twenty injured.
Chief Minister of Kerala Pinarayi Vijayan called the event “unfortunate.” “This is a very regrettable occurrence. Information is being gathered. The state DGP and other top police officers are en route to the location. We are giving it careful thought. He had stated earlier in the day that “there are multiple injuries and one fatality.”
After Vijayan spoke with Union Home Minister Amit Shah, the latter promised to provide all assistance from the Center in order to look into the perpetrators.
